Your agency burning you out?

"I haven't taken a break in years."
"I'm involved in every decision."
"If I wasn't here, things would fall apart."
"I'm tired of being the head of every department"
If you relate to any of those real quotes from agency owners, you're in the right place.You found me because you want one or both of the following:

1. Work the hours you want, when you want.

2. Eventually sell your agency for a life-changing payout.

Both of the above are achievable, but you don't have the time or energy to put the systems in.This is where I have helped 25+ agencies in 19 countries to productise, systemise and automate.

I'm Dav Nash, VP of Operations & Fractional COO

I am currently the lead operator engineering a mid-eight-figure exit for a 100+ employee international agency, actively building the systems for 40% EBITDA margins.Having previously run marketing operations at scale for agencies like fatjoe, Digital Ethos/Cadastra, and Purpose Media, I understand the friction between sales promises and fulfillment realities.I build the exact departmental structures, margin optimisations, and offshore delivery hierarchies required to pass aggressive due diligence. I can install that same architecture into your agency - without the massive overhead of a full-time COO.

I install an operational operating system into your agency:

  • Give owners their time back by giving your staff the tools and processes to do their jobs without micromanagement

  • Productise your services into a clean menu of deliverables with margin baked in

  • Put in the staffing structure to ensure no single person can break your agency

  • Implement documented processes so every client gets the same experience, and you staff's time is planned and budgeted

  • Install the financial tracking tools and templates to give you complete clarity on the health of your margins, and immediately track/fix issues

Shiying - the founder of a female-owned ethical agency in Singapore said:Working with Dav has been a transformative experience. His wisdom and support have played an integral role in shaping our agency's strategy, and I can confidently say that we are stronger for it.

Josh - the founder of a SEO agency in the UK said:Dav, fortunately, is worth every penny and a really chill guy - who's absolutely in your corner with a grounded perspective and ready to jump on as needed!

Here's the process:

Step 1: Diagnose your agency in 5 minutes

Step 2: The Audit

We start by looking under the hood of your agency. I conduct a frictionless, asynchronous audit of your core tech stack - examining how tools like HubSpot, Toggl, and your project management software actually interact. Alongside this, I run brief, targeted interviews with you and your key department heads to uncover the hidden friction points and cross-departmental bottlenecks that are quietly slowing down delivery.

You receive a comprehensive, unfiltered assessment of your agency's operational health. This diagnostic exposes the silent killers of your profitability - identifying exact margin leaks, unbilled scope creep, and drops in billable utilisation. I will also score your current setup on its "Exit Readiness," revealing how your operations would hold up under buyer due diligence today.

I translate your audit findings into a prioritised, step-by-step 90-day execution plan. You will see exactly which cross-departmental SOPs need to be built, which tech stack bloat to cut, and which QA gateways to implement in Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3 to stabilise your delivery and push your gross margins higher.

We sit down for a highly focused 45 to 60 minute walkthrough of your report and roadmap. We discuss the financial impact of the operational leaks and review the exact steps required to fix them. You leave this call with absolute clarity and a binary choice: hand the roadmap to your internal team to execute, or retain me as your Fractional COO to drive the implementation for you.
